Boot Media Selection Switch
There are two main boot media selection settings: Boot from EMMC, and boot from microSD card. On the Wandboard EDM-G, this is controlled using the DIP switch SW1. If SW1 is OFF, then the board will boot from e.MMC. If SW1 is ON, the board will boot from the baseboard microSD card.
Note the default boot media is EMMC
Boot Mode Selection Button
There are two main boot modes: Normal boot, in which the SOC boots from either e.MMC or microSD card (as determined by the SW1 setting), and serial download mode. Serial download mode is useful when attempting to reprogram blank e.MMC, or to completely overwrite the e.MMC without a requirement to run a serial console.
To boot into serial download mode, press and hold BUTTON1 while while pressing RESET1 (reset pushbutton switch).
